Bill- I think love-sex-intamcy (sp?) are all intertwined (again sp?). To me it does not make sense to say I ...

<t>This thing with the lady with MS is really sad. It is an ethical dilema. Do you take your wedding vows to the bitter end have no close relationship with anyone or do you get what you can. I guess if the good Lord gave you a high sex drive then I can't see what is wrong if you fill it. That MS ...

<t>Red Glitter- How can you say it is cheating when there is no or very little intamacy in the relationship. That is putting form over content. Maybe in the case of the lady with MS if she understood and loved her husband whe would understand that he would need to fulfil his needs if he has strong ...

I know a man who's married to a woman who has multiple sclerosis. She cannot be touched without having pain and the drugs she takes have caused some bad side-effects ...

<t>I think some men cheat because they have no character, some men cheat because they get little or no sex at home. If a wife refused to have sex with a husband and this goes on for a long time would the husband be cheating if he found love elsewhere. I think there is no cheating if there is no or ...

<t>RedGlit--in late 1989 a neighbor farmer gave us a mother cat and 5 kittens (he had about 50 of them). Within in 60 days the mother and 3 of the 5 kittens died of Feline Leukemia. A male and female survied. I had the male neutered and the female proceeded to have two letters of kittens in less ...

Nvalleyvee- Sounds like you like animals too. Johoman

Lulu- A dog would not do for my wife. I had a dog when she married me 26 years ago but she has changed her opinion of dogs since then. I have not. Cat and dogs both have their own rewards. My wife has this phobia about pet hair. Johoman

Lulu- All of our cats (inside and outside) are short hair, what they call Domestic Short Hair. I think long hair cats don't do well in rural areas. To many stickers, burrs, etc. Johoman

<t>Wendy Bird- Pet hair is a BIG thing with my wife, to me it is just part of owning a pet (dog or cat). I point out to my wife that she sheds too!!! But I will tolerate the shaving but I will not tolarate not having a pet. Our 6 outdoor cats (they have access to a garage with heated pads in the ...

<t>Red Glitter- Thanks for the nice post. I agree with you totally. I think it is a small price to pay for all the love and atention one gets from a pet. Sometimes I think my wife is a coward. I have had to bury many a pet dog or cat that was put down or died naturally. The wife never was in the ...

Wendy Bird- That is one awful loking cat. At least mine is shaved and does not look like a feline poodle.

I don't know if she hates it. The groomers says she is a good cat (!) when she is trimmed. I think the cat is much softer and better looking with a natural coat but I can't convince my wife of that.

<t>Thanks guys for your replies. Instead of giving her many snacks during the day I give her a few daily but everytime the asks for them I love her instead. Maybe she will associate loving instead of food. The suggestion that I get lo cal snacks is a good one but the wife buys the snacks and it ...

<t>Dear All- I have one inside cat and 6 outside cats. I live on a farm in Kansas. My wife told me that when our inside cat dies we won't get another one or she will leave! Believe it or not. I dearly love my pets and my indoor cat is a real buddy-real demanding. She likes to eat and has been geting ...
